  Very nice, still I prefer SW 3d sketching abillity. Saves more time then opening a new plane every time.
  Also it's important to mension that when marking the lines in the frame command for an intersection of 3 or more lines, one have to pick 2 lines every time in order to control the end conditions of the frame properly.
  Thx.

     I was trying to find this video tutorial yesterday but no luck.

     Thanks Ivan. I never do the sketches from the frame command. doing the sketches as a sepert part gives me more control when I'm editing the frame.
     Good day!

     @Marek
     click link and hit the "download" button...think it`s work that way...hope it helps :)))
     Enjoy

     Ivan,
     Can you do a stress analysis for the frame with the basic ST4 (no simulation package)? are the simulation results considered reliable in the basic ST4?

     P.S.
     You convinced me and I'll give the frame drawing another chance :).
     Thanks.

     Avis,
     Reliable as NX solver allow do be...that mean reliable hard as a rock :)
     ...do not know about student/basic or else...you should check it on solidedge.com

     That`s not quite right Avis...You do not have to pick plane every time, 3d sketching allow you to draw whatever you want in 3d from start to the end (no need to change planes or angles). This depend on model complexity though...more complex model - more stuff to add...And 2 or more lines intersection define in "frame options/corner treatment" properties only once and SE acting accordingly...I posted similar tutorial here: http://grabcad.com/questions/tutorial-frame-designer-basics check it out.
     But, both SE and SW are just tools...crafty hands are more imported :)))
     Cheers Bro
     P.S.
     Marek well done :)

     Thanks Avis, you should try frame drawings, once you got hooked your done :))) (to understand each other - this is for frames types drawings only like chassis, tables, frames, boxes, Truss, lattice masts...etc) and one very good new thing ST4 provide is you can simulate designed frame for all analysis you need as one part - no need to connect or even mesh it...extra mighty stuff! Highly Recommended :)))

     Enjoy Buddy :)

  Thank you for this very useful tutorial.

  Step 13. should have as nr 1. select "include" and then wireframe chain, as a beginner it was little confusing. But later on it was mentioned tbh...

  Thanks for the nice tutorial!

  No problm, SE supports 3D sketch also.

     I'm not familiar with 3D sketch in SE.
     Can you advise how to do it?
